Answer & Solution
Correct Answer: Option B
Good storage requires Low temperature and high relative humidity.
Fresh fruits and vegetables need low temperatures (32 to 55°F) and high relative humidities (80 to 95 percent) to lower respiration and slow metabolic and transpiration rates.
Low temperatures prevent the growth of microorganisms, the activity of enzymes and purely chemical reactions. Freezing prevents the growth of most foodborne microorganisms and refrigeration temperatures slow down the growth of microorganisms.
